NAIROBI: The Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) plans to spend a cool Sh500 million to survey a security system installed two years ago at a cost of Sh400 million. On September 15, KPC placed adverts in major newspapers asking for “Expression of Interest (EOI) for Provision of Security Consultancy Services.” The tender number is SU/QT/049N/15.

Documents seen by The Standard on Sunday indicate that KPC has budgeted Sh500 million for this exercise although the system to be evaluated was installed in 2012 at for Sh400 million.
